Today's Real Invitation is something that you don't typically don't see from me. My good friend Gillian reached out to me to create invitations for her son's 5th birthday party. It's a Slime Time party. The first thing she says to me, "Are you going to be able to this because I consider you to be the designer of 'all things pretty!'" Of course I loved that! I told her, of course, I can do slimy... right? Well, in reality these were a bit more of a challenge to me than I originally anticipated. The first couple of drafts my husband kept telling me it was "too pretty"... So finally after some work, we came up with these! I hope Joshua's has a fabulous time at his Slime Time Birthday Party! We are also making some matching labels and favor tags for the slime fest! :)

This invitation is 4x9 inches printed on a glossy cardstock, mailed in a bright pumpkin colored envelope.

Have a great weekend! We have more invitations next week and lots of inspiration eye candy coming up!
